Halloween Sampler Scarf

Welcome to the September Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop! The purpose of this Pinterest Challenge is to motivate all the participants of this hop (and you too) to not just pin, but to make it happen! Since Halloween is just around the corner, this month I'm sharing my Halloween Sampler Scarf, which is a fun Snappy Tots pattern I discovered on Pinterest.

Halloween is one of my favorite days of the year! I used to really enjoy dressing up, but now that I have children, I enjoy dressing them up in fun costumes and making crochet accessories for their costumes. Well, I recently stumbled upon several fun Halloween themed crochet patterns by Snappy Tots, and I really liked this Halloween scarf pattern, so I made it. It was fun to make! My favorite part of the scarf is Frankenstein. I did make a few changes to the original, but for the most part, I followed the pattern.

This scarf features many color changes. For this scarf, I used Caron Simply Soft in Pumkpin, Pistachio, LimelightBlack, Sunshine, Purple, Gray Heather, and White.

Once I finished the body of the scarf, it was time to add the fun Halloween characters!

Jack O'lantern and the Bride of Frankenstein... Crocheting her hair was fun!

witch and her hat... In the pattern, a piece of tulle is used to create the bow, but I decided to crochet a purple bow.

 black cat and skull... I made the skull a little differently than in the pattern. 

 Frankenstein and a bat

In the pattern, this part is supposed to have colorful ghost eyes made with yarn and buttons, but I decided to add spiders instead. There is also a green section in the scarf that features a couple spiders.

Pumpkin!

There's also a candy corn section in this scarf. Yummy!

This fun Halloween Scarf is approximately 70 inches long and 4 inches wide. I'm considering making another Halloween Scarf for my Etsy Shop...
